clamav and freshclam update failures

[Jan]

Whats the output when you try in a terminal ..

Code:

sudo apt-get install clamav-daemon

**UPDATE**
I reran a

Code:

sudo freshclam

..
I get a similar - Cant find or parse configuration file /etc/clamav/clamd.conf

When I do the above I get the response that "clamav-daemon is already the newest version."

However, it then lists two packages that were automatically installed but are no longer needed.  These are:

libllvm8 linux-image-unsigned -4.15.0-72 generic
linux modules-4.15.0-72 generic

To remove them, its says use

sudo apt autoremove

I did that and then ran as you said

sudo freshclam

And, voila, it says the data base is up to date.  (Yay!!!)
Time to run the virus scan.  Following the tutorial exactly, I entered
sudo clamscan -r -i / | grep FOUND >> /home/the user name on my computer/virus-scan-report.txt
Next comes a long stream of Warnings! like:
LibClamAV Warnings: fmap_readpage: pread fail: asked for 4077 bytes to offset 19, got 0WARNING: Can't open file /sys/module/drm/ uevent: Permission denied.
There are more sys/module WARNINGS, too numerous to mention, but outcome is; Permission denied. 

I'm just letting this continue it's run, and will see if I get a virus scan report eventually,  but this sure doesn't look good right now.
